  3. As I bought her she was a 1.0 e with roughly 78000 on her, the engine was mint but gearbox was kaput. My intentions were always to convert it with a 20v turbo. I garaged her up till the right donor car came up. Nay on a year! Then a mark 4 golf GTI on a private plate came up came up with side damage ( ie drivers side wheels were both bent under the car ) the golf had 70 odd thou on it but ran like a dream if I'm being honest. I had my mate go over it who's a time served mechanic with his own garage/MOT center and he gave the engine/gearbox a good check Obviosly only to look at, listen to and check the usual and he gave it a good bill of health. He did say as its only a check to change the problem things like the cam belt, pulleys, water pump, all the gaskets, coil packs, plugs, a whole new clutch as in everything. As I didn't want to have problems after a few weeks/months as in honesty to change things like that is pretty much engine out within reason as you can imagine there isnt much room in the bay. When the engine was being put in the car everything that was needed was genuine VW parts even down to bolts. My car was the 1st Lupo that ACR had converted with a 20v and took a long time to get it to fit right. Coz if anybody knows ACR then the 2 andy's wouldn't release it if wasn't 100% so that speaks for itself. So getting to specs and stuff like that: Engine: Engine conversion by ACR Solid heat treated drive shafts ( not golf ones cut then welded up and sleeved ) Custom made engine mounts by ACR Golf 20v turbo 150bhp engine Golf turbo 5 speed box 150bhp turbo replaced with 180bhp Audi tt turbo Custom made radiator Custom made front mount inter cooler Custom made Solid boost pipes Custom made turbo down pipe mated with golf cat to pass emissions mated to a 3" pipe to a custom made TVR carbon fibre race can exhaust Recirculation dump valve Live generic map by Big fish tuning Audi 225bhp fuel pump Pink injectors White powdercoated inlet manifold and rocker cover Suspension: Ta technix coil overs saw less than 100 mile before being garaged up ( where it is now ) Brakes: Full front and back G60 disc set up with rotor discs all round and pretty much brand new G60 pads Interior: Full GTI black plastics GTI black carpet Golf GTI black leather handbrake Golf GTI black leather gear gator mated to Lupo gear knob Audi TT knee bars ( unfitted ) Boost gauge ( unfitted ) Gloss black centre console, vents, T piece, light switch Mark 4 golf GTI turbo recaro interior. Re-trimmed by MJ interiors. If you know cars and appreciate top notch quality then you will no MJ and know it does not come cheap. Wheels: BBS RX2 split rim alloys with black powdercoated centres and polished lips. Also comes with a lot of spares to much to list! Price £5800 Cheers gareth

    Exhaust move

    No mate it's not that simple at all.... The bumper is the least of the worry the GTI and sport come with shallow wheel wells ( the sport with a space saver and GTI with tyre foam stuff ) I believe anyway! So it's a case of cutting the well shallowing it up re-welding it up making new hangers for it to attach then the bumper then get the exhaust to sit right!

    Lupo 20v

  9. How much for rear black bumper? And whats the condition of said bumper? Pics please Gareth
  10. Mate Id imagine it would be expensive. I will package it up and get it all weighed up over the weekend pm your address an ill get back to you ok pal Gareth
  11. Yes buddy you will. But there's loads of sports getting broke on here.
  12. Yeah I would post buddy be pretty expensive I would imagine! Gareth
  13. Liam can I ask a question. What is the part your actually touching? Is it reverse? The reason being is (1) it gets louder and more defined when yout pushing further away from the top and (2) when u push gear stick anyway it stops! In my opinion it's clearly summat to do with what you are pressing/moving! If you figure out what gear that is then your so much closer! Mad yes! but could it be thrust release bearing and the noise is transferring? I'm not a mechanic or anywhere near but you have identified where it's coming from so in my opinion work back from there! Gareth
  14. Bump make me offers guys this is a great upgrade
  15. To do it properly you would have to get gti rear quarter panels cut yours off and weld on. Then either reduce the depth of the wheel well and get that all welded up. Right chew on I'd imagine! I think the sport bumper is a straight fit mind,other than the wheel well problem that is. I'm not 100% on the sport bumper so dont quote me on it.
  16. I've got a set of black powdercoated bbs rx2 split rims with polished lips. £350 with tyres £250 without tyres
